Allah is the believers' best friend and helper. When they
encounter hardship or troubles, and when they are in safety
and tranquility, they know that He is with them and so turn
only to Him with absolute trust and in complete reliance up-

there is a reason and wisdom in it. For instance, believers re-
frain from unhealthy things as a precautionary measure.
However, if they somehow become infected with a deadly
disease, they know that it is Allah's will. Given this fact, they
do not panic or despair; rather, they remain patient and trust-
ing. Believers are not saddened or worried by events, but live
in the peace and calm that comes from trusting Allah.
Such trust brings a comfort and beauty to believers that
